involving the patented item.

time required for, performance of any part of the Work, may recommend to the Owner
an equitable adjustment in the Task Order Sum or Task Order Time, or both. If the
Owner, in consultation with the Owner determine that the conditions at the Site are not
00700-15
JOB ORDER CONTRACT: ***
Contract No.: 918-**-***

the decision.

Work was performed.
4.2.4.3 Waiver of Claim for Additional Cost. Failure to give notice of a Claim for an increase
in the Contract Sum in strict compliance with the requirements of this Article 4.2.4

make a Claim or allegation based upon actions or omissions of the Owner’s
designated Authorized Agent in any way related to or touching on the activities,
events, losses, or expenses set forth in a Claim presented pursuant to this Article 4,

4.2.5.1 Estimate of Cost and Delay. If the Job Order Contractor wishes to make a Claim for
an increase in the Contract Time, written notice as provided in Article 4.2.5.4 shall
be given. The Job Order Contractor's Claim shall include an estimate of cost, analysis
of Schedule and impact on critical path, and of probable effect of delay on progress

delay caused by the Owner, any of the other contractors, or other causes beyond
the Job Order Contractor's control, unless the delay affects the critical path of the
Project, and then only to the extent that the delay affects the critical path. No
extension of time shall be granted to the Job Order Contractor to the extent that,
notwithstanding the existence of any such circumstance beyond the Job Order
Contractor's control, delay would have resulted in any event due to a concurrent
unexcused delay by the Job Order Contractor.
4.2.5.4 Notice of Claim for Additional Time. Should the Job Order Contractor contend that it
is entitled to an extension of time for completion of any portion or portions of the
Work, the Job Order Contractor shall, within five (5) days of the occurrence of the

cause of the delay, (2) a description of the portion or portions of Work affected by
the delay, (3) the specific number of days of delay for which an extension of time is
requested, and (4) all details pertaining thereto. Within three (3) Business Days after
the expiration of any such delay, if such delay continues after the filing of the Claim
pursuant to the foregoing sentence, the Job Order Contractor shall deliver to the
Owner a subsequent written application for the specific number of days of
extension of time requested.
4.2.5.5 Waiver of Claim for Additional Time. Failure to give notice of a Claim for extension
of time in strict compliance with the requirements of this Article 4.2.5 shall
constitute a waiver of such Claim.

to person or property because of an act or omission of the Owner, written notice of such injury
or damage, whether or not insured, shall be given to the Owner within a reasonable time not
exceeding three (3) Business Days after first observance. The notice shall provide sufficient
detail to enable the Owner to investigate the matter. If a Claim for additional cost or time
related to this Claim is to be asserted, it shall be filed as provided in Article 4.2.4 or 4.2.5.

Contractor in such a manner so as to be easily identifiable as belonging to a specific

proper to receive the Job Order Contractor's Work, except as to defects not then
reasonably discoverable.

amount from the progress payment sufficient to pay the expenses that the Owner

reviewed the Job Order Contractor's construction means, methods, techniques,
sequences, or procedures, (3) reviewed copies of requisitions received from

reasonably necessary to protect the Owner, if in the Owner's opinion the
representations to the Owner required in Article 9.3.1 cannot be made. If the Owner is
unable to recommend payment in the amount of the Application for Payment, the
Owner will notify the Job Order Contractor and Owner as provided in Article 9.3.1. If the
Job Order Contractor and Owner cannot agree on a revised amount, the Owner will
promptly issue a recommendation for the amount for which the Owner is able to make
such representations to the Owner. The Owner may also decide not to recommend
payment or, because of subsequently discovered evidence or subsequent observations,
may nullify the whole or a part of a recommendation previously issued, to such extent
as may be necessary in the Owner's opinion to protect the Owner from loss because of:
9.4.1.1 Defective Work not remedied;

claims;
9.4.1.3 Failure of the Job Order Contractor to make payments properly to Subcontractors or
for labor, materials, or equipment;

the Contract Sum;
9.4.1.5 Damage to the Owner or another contractor or Job Order Contractor;

and that the unpaid balance would not be adequate to cover actual or liquidated
damages for the anticipated delay;
9.4.1.7 Persistent failure to carry out the Work in accordance with the Contract;
9.4.1.8 Unsatisfactory prosecution of the Work or failure to comply with the Contract

Job Order Contractor shall pay each Subcontractor, within seven (7) days of receipt of
payment from the Owner, out of the amount paid to the Job Order Contractor on
account of such portion of the Work. The amount to which each Subcontractor is

agreement with each Subcontractor, require each Subcontractor to make payments to
sub-subcontractors in the same manner.
9.5.2 No Obligation to Oversee Payments. The Owner shall have neither an obligation to pay
nor to see to the payment of money to a Subcontractor.
9.5.3 Payment Not Acceptance of Work. A payment recommendation, a progress payment, or

such unpaid balance as may be due, provided however, that such one percent (1%)
charge shall not apply to any disputed portion of an Application for Payment. If any
periodic or Final Payment to a Subcontractor is delayed by more than seven (7) days
after receipt of the periodic or Final Payment by the Job Order Contractor or
Subcontractor, the Job Order Contractor or Subcontractor shall pay interest to his
Subcontractor or material supplier, beginning on the eighth day, at the rate of one
percent (1%) per month or a fraction of a month on such unpaid balance as may be due.
9.7 FAILURE OF PAYMENT
9.7.1 If the Job Order Contractor, for any reason not the fault of the Job Order Contractor, is
not paid any undisputed amount within fourteen (14) days after the date payment is
due, the Job Order Contractor may, upon seven (7) additional days notice to the Owner,
stop the Work until payment of the amount owing has been received. Notwithstanding
the preceding, the Job Order Contractor shall not stop the Work during the pendency of
a dispute which has been submitted to Alternative Dispute Resolution pursuant to
Exhibit B, nor shall the Job Order Contractor stop the Work if the Owner makes payment
of any amounts not in dispute within seven (7) days after the Job Order Contractor's
notice of nonpayment is received by the Owner.
9.8 SUBSTANTIAL COMPLETION
9.8.1 Defined. Substantial Completion is the stage of completion of the Work or area of Work
when that portion of the Project or Work for which the Job Order Contractor is
responsible is fully usable by the Owner for its intended purpose, without inconvenience
to, or risk of harm to, the Owner or the public. The authority to determine whether the
Job Order Contractor has achieved Substantial Completion is determined by the Owner,
whose decision shall be final and binding.
9.8.2 Certificate of Substantial Completion. When the Job Order Contractor considers that the
Work, or a portion thereof which the Owner agrees to accept separately, is substantially
complete, the Job Order Contractor shall prepare and submit to the Owner a
comprehensive list of items to be completed or corrected. All Owner training, Record
Documents, Operation and Maintenance Manuals, warranties, guarantees, reports, and
information required for the Owner to operate the facility in accordance with Article
9.8.1 shall be provided in the quantities specified. The Job Order Contractor shall, in the
time frame indicated in the Contract Documents, complete and correct all items on the
list, unless a longer time is granted by the Owner in writing. Failure to include an item
on such list does not alter the responsibility of the Job Order Contractor to complete all
Work in accordance with the Contract. Upon receipt of the list, the A/E, if utilized,
assisted by the Owner, will make an inspection to determine whether the Work or
designated portion thereof is substantially complete. If the inspection discloses any
item, whether or not included on the list, which is not in accordance with the
requirements of the Contract, the Job Order Contractor shall, before issuance of the
Certificate of Substantial Completion, complete or correct such item upon notification
by the Owner. The Job Order Contractor shall then submit a request for another
inspection by the A/E, if utilized, assisted by the Owner, to determine Substantial
Completion. When the Work or designated portion thereof is substantially complete,
00700-27
JOB ORDER CONTRACT: ***
Contract No.: 918-**-***
the A/E, if utilized, will prepare a certificate which shall (1) establish the date of
Substantial Completion, (2) establish responsibilities of the Owner and Job Order
Contractor for security, maintenance, heat, utilities, and damage to the Work, and (3)
shall fix the time within which the Job Order Contractor shall finish all items on the list
accompanying the Certificate of Substantial Completion (Certificate). The Certificate
shall be submitted to the Owner and Job Order Contractor for their written acceptance
of responsibilities assigned to them in such Certificate.
9.9 FINAL COMPLETION AND FINAL PAYMENT
9.9.1 Final Inspection. Following the Owner’s issuance of a Certificate of Substantial
Completion of the Work and upon completion of the Work, the Job Order Contractor
shall forward to the Owner a written notice that the Work is ready for final inspection
and acceptance, and shall also forward to the Owner a final Application for Payment.
The Job Order Contractor’s submission of Final Completion Notice shall indicate that all
tiems listed in Substantial Completion have been completed. When the Owner finds the
Work acceptable under the Contract and the Task Order fully performed, the Owner will
promptly issue a final recommendation stating that to the best of their knowledge,
information, and belief, and on the basis of their observations and inspections, the Work
has been completed in accordance with the Task Order and that the remaining Task
Order Sum is due, including all retainage, less authorized deductions.
9.9.2 Conditions to Final Payment. Final Payment to the Job Order Contractor shall be made
within sixty (60) days after compliance by the Job Order Contractor with Article 9.9.1
and Article 9.9.2. Neither Final Payment nor any remaining retainage shall become due
until the Job Order Contractor submits to the Owner (1) an affidavit acknowledging that
all Subcontractors, payrolls, bills for materials and equipment, and other indebtedness
connected with the Work will be paid or otherwise satisfied once final payment is made,
(2) a certificate evidencing that insurance required by Article 11 is currently in effect and
will not be cancelled or allowed to expire until at least 30 days prior written notice has
been given to the Owner, (3) a written statement that the Job Order Contractor knows
of no reason that the insurance will not cover the period required by Article 11, (4) the
written consent of the Surety to Final Payment, (5) a full and final release and
conditional waiver of liens from the Job Order Contractor. The Job Order Contractor
shall also indemnify, defend, and hold harmless the Indemnitees against liens by any
Subcontractor (collectively “Final Payment”). Upon final payment each Task Order, the
Job Order Contractor shall provide an unconditional wavier.
9.9.3 Waiver of Claims. Acceptance of payment by the Job Order Contractor shall constitute a
waiver of claims by that payee, except those previously made in writing and identified
by that payee as unsettled at the time of final Application for Payment.

precautions and incorporated into the Work.
10.1.2 Remedy for Failure to Maintain Safety. If the Job Order Contractor fails to maintain the

arising out of or resulting from the presence, uncovering, release of suspected or
confirmed asbestos, polychlorinated biphenyls (PCBs), petroleum based substances, or
hazardous substances to the extent caused by the negligence of, or failure to comply

review and consider the Neutral Evaluator decision. The Chairman shall determine the
nature and scope of discovery, if any, and the manner of presentation of relevant
evidence consistent with deadlines provided herein, and the parties’ objective that
disputes be resolved in a prompt and efficient manner. No discovery may be had of any
EXHIBIT B
JOB ORDER CONTRACT: ***
Contract No.: 918-**-***
materials or information for which a privilege is recognized by Arizona law. The
Chairman upon proper application shall issue such orders as may be necessary and
permissible under law to protect confidential, proprietary or sensitive materials or
information from public disclosure or other misuse. Any party may make application to
the Maricopa County Superior Court to have a protective order entered as may be
appropriate to confirm such orders of the Chairman.
1.4.5 Hearing Days. In order to effectuate parties’ goals, the hearing once commenced, will
proceed from working day to working day until concluded, absent a showing of
emergency circumstances.
1.4.6 Award. The Arbitration Panel shall, within ten (10) calendar days from the conclusion of

fees and costs pursuant to 1.4.13 herein. The award is to be rendered in accordance
with the Contract and the law of the State of Arizona.
1.4.7 Scope of Award. The Arbitration Panel shall be without authority to award punitive
damages, and any such punitive damage award shall be void. The Arbitration Panel shall
be without any authority to issue an award against any individual party in excess twenty
percent (20%) of the original Contract amount, but in no event shall any award exceed
two million dollars ($2,000,000), exclusive of interest, arbitration fees, costs and
attorneys’ fees. If an award is made against any individual party in excess of one
hundred thousand dollars ($100,000), exclusive of interest, arbitration fees, costs and
attorneys’ fees, it must be supported by written findings of fact, conclusions of law and
a statement as to how damages were calculated. Any claim in excess of twenty percent
(20%) of the original Contract amount or in excess two million dollars ($2,000,000) shall
be subject to the original jurisdiction of the Superior Court of Arizona, Maricopa County.
Any party can contest the validity of the amount claimed if an action is filed in the
Superior Court.
1.4.8 Jurisdiction. The Arbitration Panel shall not be bound for jurisdictional purposes by the
amount asserted in any party’s claim, but shall conduct a preliminary hearing into the
question of jurisdiction upon application of any party at the earliest convenient time,
but not later than the commencement of the arbitration hearing.
1.4.9 Entry of Judgment. Any party can make application to the Maricopa County Superior
Court for confirmation of an award, and for entry of judgment on it.
1.4.10 Severance and Joinder. To reduce the possibility of inconsistent adjudications, the
Neutral Evaluator or the Arbitration Panel, may: (i) at the request of any party, join
and/or sever parties, and/or claims arising under other contracts containing this ADR
provision, and (ii) the Neutral Evaluator, on his own authority, or the Arbitration Panel
may, on his own authority, join or sever parties and/or claims subject to this ADR
process as they deem necessary for a just resolution of the dispute, consistent with the
parties’ goal of the prompt and efficient resolution of disputes, provided, however, that
the A/E, Owner and Project Professionals shall not be joined as a party to any claim
made by a Job Order Contractor. Nothing herein shall create the right by any party to
assert claims against another party not germane to the Contract or not recognized
under the substantive law applicable to the dispute. Neither the Neutral Evaluator nor
EXHIBIT B
JOB ORDER CONTRACT: ***
Contract No.: 918-**-***
the Arbitration Panel is authorized to join to the proceeding parties not in privity with
the County. Job Order Contractor can not be joined to any pending arbitration
proceeding, without Job Order Contractor’s express written consent, unless Job Order
Contractor is given the opportunity to participate in the selection of the non-County
appointed arbitrator.
1.4.11 Appeal. Any party may appeal (i) errors of law by the Arbitration Panel if, but only if,
the errors arise in an award in excess of one hundred thousand dollars ($100,000); (ii)
the exercise by the Chairman or Arbitration Panel of any powers contrary to or
inconsistent with the Contract; or (iii) on the basis of any of the grounds provided in
A.R.S. § 12-1512. Appeals shall be to the Maricopa County Superior Court within fifteen
(15) calendar days of entry of the award. The standard of review in such cases shall be
that applicable to the consideration of a motion for judgment notwithstanding the
verdict, and the Maricopa County Superior Court shall have the authority to confirm,
vacate, modify or remand an award appealed under this section, but not to conduct a
trial, entertain the introduction of new evidence or conduct a hearing de novo.
1.4.12 Uniform Arbitration Act. Except as otherwise provided herein, binding arbitration
pursued under this provision shall be governed by the Uniform Arbitration Act as
codified in Arizona in A.R.S. § 12-1501, et seq.
1.4.13 Fees and Costs. Each party shall bear its own fees and costs in connection with any
informal hearing before the Neutral Evaluator. All fees and costs associated with any
arbitration before the Arbitration Panel, including without limitation the Arbitration
Panelists’ fee, and the prevailing party’s reasonable attorneys’ fees, expert witness fees
and costs, will be paid by the non-prevailing party, except as provided for herein. In no
event shall any Arbitrator’s hourly fees be awarded in an amount in excess of $200 per
hour and (i) costs shall not include any travel expenses in excess of mileage at the rate
paid by Maricopa County, not to exceed a one way trip of 150 miles, and (ii) all travel
expenses, including meals, shall be reimbursed pursuant to the travel policy of Maricopa
County in effect at the time of the hearing. The determination of prevailing and non-
prevailing parties, and the appropriate allocation of fees and costs, will be included in
the award by the Arbitration Panel. Fees for the Neutral Evaluator shall be paid by
Owner.
1.4.14 Confidentiality. Any proceeding initiated under ADR shall be deemed confidential to
the maximum extent allowed by Arizona law and, except for disclosures to a party’s
attorneys or accountants, no party shall make any disclosure related to the disputed
matter or to the outcome of any proceeding except to the extent required by law, or to
seek interim equitable relief, or to enforce an agreement reached by the parties or an
award made hereunder.
1.4.15 Equitable Litigation. Notwithstanding any other provision of ADR to the contrary, any
party can petition the Maricopa County Superior Court for interim equitable relief as
necessary to preserve the status quo and prevent immediate and irreparable harm to a
party or to the Owner’s Capital Improvement Program pending resolution of a dispute
pursuant to ADR provided herein. No court may order any permanent injunctive relief
except as may be necessary to enforce an order entered by the Arbitration Panel. The
EXHIBIT B
JOB ORDER CONTRACT: ***
Contract No.: 918-**-***
fees and costs incurred in connection with any such equitable proceeding shall be
determined and assessed in ADR.
1.4.16 Change Order. Any award in favor of the Job Order Contractor against the County or in
favor of the County against the Job Order Contractor shall be reduced to a Change Order
and executed by the parties in accordance with the award and the provisions of this
Contract.
1.4.17 Merger and Bar. Any claim asserted pursuant to this ADR process shall be deemed to
include all claims, demands, and requests for compensation for costs and losses or other
relief, including the extension of the Contract performance period which reasonably
should or could have been brought against any party that was or could have been
brought into this ADR process, with respect to the subject claim. The Arbitration Panel
shall apply legal principles commonly known as merger and bar to deny any claim or
claims against any party regarding which claim or claims recovery has been sought or
should have been sought in a previously adjudicated claim for an alleged cost, loss,
breach, error, or omission.
